There is a kind of scholar

Chapter 421
Soon, General Huyan's bad premonition came true!
The hand of Thousand-faced Fox that penetrated into the clothes seemed to be holding something, and he slowly took it out. Finally, he held the object and displayed it in front of General Huyan.

"Ling...talisman!"

General Huyan was immediately dumbfounded.

stunned.

He opened his eyes as big as copper bells and leaned closer to observe carefully.

In the hands of the Thousand-faced Fox, there was an oval-shaped token with complex proprietary patterns engraved on it, and a large "order" character in the middle.

This is indeed a commonly used command talisman in the Liao Kingdom.

Its function is exactly the same as that of the beam.

Holding this object allows you to mobilize all troops in a certain limited area.

Anyone who dares to disobey will be punished by beheading...

After careful identification, General Huyan's face suddenly became very ugly, because he could be sure that the talisman was real.

The lieutenants who were closer also came over, and after carefully identifying it, they nodded to each other. They recognized the authenticity of this command talisman.

In fact, this talisman was a trophy that Thousand-faced Fox seized from Nalan Yan.

He originally wanted to keep it as a collection, but he didn't expect this thing to have such a wonderful use, not bad.

"General Huyan listen to the order!" Qianmianhu raised the order talisman in his hand, with a solemn expression, and shouted loudly in front of all the soldiers.

"The last general is here." General Hu Yan immediately became honest, bowing his head.

"Princess Ruyi orders you to enter the city immediately. After entering the city, strengthen the city's defenses, defend the city, and wait for the next order." Thousand-faced Fox said in a deep voice.

"The last general takes orders!"

After General Huyan bowed his hands respectfully and raised his head, he took a deep look at Qianmianhu, then turned and left.

The lieutenants immediately followed behind. Their hearts were agitated, saying that they could finally enter the city. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time.

The ordinary soldiers nearby were even happier and couldn't help but rub their hands secretly, as if the endless gold and silver treasures and the water-spirited Central Plains women were waving to them...

after a little while.

The gate of Youzhou City slowly opened.

The door shaft turned hard, making a heart-wrenching sound.

General Huyan was still cautious. He did not enter the city in person. Instead, he selected two lieutenants and led five thousand enthusiastic soldiers to act as the vanguard of exploring the road.

Five thousand soldiers and horses moved slowly, and the horses' hooves made a crisp sound on the bluestone pavement.

To the "Liao troops" on the tower, this was simply a fairy sound!
at the same time.

The news that the Liao army had begun to enter the city immediately spread back to the lobby of Youzhou Yamen, making it known to Su Xian and others.

"Okay! The fish finally took the bait!"

Su Xian stood up and couldn't help but smile. As long as the Liao army entered the city, they were 90.00% sure to trick the Liao army.

Zhou Ji's office was curious and asked why the Liao army suddenly entered the city?
The scout then recounted the scene that had just happened under the city wall.

After everyone heard this, they were all confused.

Qiu Dianjun muttered: "Who is that young man dressed as a scholar? How could he make the overly cautious Hu Yanxiong lead his troops into the city?"

Her questions went unanswered.

Because no one knows.

……

Inside and outside the city gate.

Five thousand Liao cavalry lined up in order and slowly entered the city under the leadership of two lieutenants.

The city was unusually quiet. There were traces of the battle everywhere, torches were thrown everywhere, and there were even corpses that had not been collected.

Seeing this, the two lieutenants did not have the slightest suspicion.

Because they had known for a long time that six thousand Liao troops had sneaked into the city in advance. These 6000 people were the best of the best. Once they launched an attack, they would be able to easily seize the city gate.

Moreover, they not only captured the city gate, but also destroyed the garrison camp in the west of the city, killing thousands of Liang troops in one battle. Although more than 5 Liang troops took advantage of the chaos to escape, there were [-] of them. not afraid.

The two lieutenants rode at the front. Although they were alert, they were more leisurely and contented.

They looked around at the buildings on both sides of the street, as if looking at their own home, and talked comfortably:
"This Youzhou is a big city. There are countless officials and wealthy merchants from the Liang Kingdom living in it. They have a lot of wealth, and the women in the family are even more beautiful..."

"Hey, who says it's not the case? I'm going to snatch the daughter of the governor of Youzhou to sleep with me tonight, hehehehe..."

"What does this mean? I like my mother..."

"..."

Before he could finish his words, an arrow was suddenly shot from the dark roof of the building next to the street, directly hitting the deputy general's neck.

puff!
The polished and sharp arrow instantly pierced the deputy general's neck and emerged from the other side, bringing out a large rain of bright red blood.

The arrow shaft was blocked by flesh and blood, and got stuck on the neck.

"what……"

The lieutenant only had time to let out a short cry before he slowly fell from his horse.

All this happened in an instant.

"There is an ambush! Withdraw!"

The other lieutenant reacted very quickly. While shouting, he turned his horse's head and retreated towards the city gate with all his strength.

But at this moment, countless arrows were shot from the rooftops on both sides of the street, dense as rain.

Ahhhhh!

The Liao troops, who were not prepared much, were hit by arrows and fell from their horses.

They were ordinary soldiers, and the armor on their bodies was only enough to protect their vital points. Such dense arrows were fired at random, and even if they were hit randomly, they would not kill them, but they would still make them lose their combat effectiveness.

In addition, the war horse is frightened, throwing off its hooves and running and jumping wildly, and the strong horse's hooves can trample people to death.

So in an instant, more than half of the five thousand Liao soldiers who entered the city were lost.

There was chaos inside the city gate, with shouts of killing and screams shaking the sky.

Almost at the same time that the battle started inside the city, the Liao troops still outside the city were also attacked by the so-called "Liao troops" on the city wall.

Bows and arrows, crossbows, crossbows, trebuchets, etc. were shot one after another, like rain.

The Liao troops under the city were caught off guard and were too dense, so they suffered heavy casualties at the beginning of the battle.

"what!"

General Huyan looked up to the sky and howled angrily.

He didn't command the battle immediately, but looked for Nalan Festival everywhere, and said angrily: "The prince of Hunxie misunderstood me!"

However, the Thousand-faced Fox disguised as Nalanjie had long disappeared, and General Huyan could not find it for a while.

This made him extremely angry...

in the city.

After paying the heavy price of losing more than half of their troops, the five thousand Liao troops finally stabilized their formation. They gathered together, raised their shields above their heads, and successfully defended against the rain of arrows shot from the sky.

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

The lieutenant general, who was covered in blood, loudly ordered that as long as they could evacuate from the city alive, they could save their lives. This was the idea of ​​the Liao troops trapped in the city.

But the next moment, they were desperate.

Because, before the rain of arrows from the sky stopped, another boulder as big as a millstone flew down and crashed down, causing the Liao army's shield array to collapse and disintegrate.

Without the protection of shields, arrows rained from the sky, and the Liao army was immediately harvested in pieces.

In fact, using divine thunder as an ambush is extremely effective, and coupled with the flammable oil, it is really amazing.

However, during the battle in Ping'an City, all the divine thunder and the oil that could be found were used up.

Fortunately, Youzhou is a border state, and the reserves of weapons such as bows, arrows and crossbows are frighteningly abundant.

The soldiers hid on the rooftops beside the street and kept firing arrows without aiming at all. The falling arrows were really like a violent storm, and the Liao army had almost no place to stand.

These Liao troops are the invincible Liao cavalry. They attack thousands of miles and often frighten the enemy. However, in this case, their horses have already been frightened and fled, and their advantage cannot be used at all.

They are really not reconciled to dying so aggrieved.
